About
Alexa Ispas holds a PhD in psychology from the University of Edinburgh. Following her academic studies she embarked on a long journey of self-discovery, which led to pursuing a succession of interesting career paths that are reflected in the eclectic nature of her books.
Among other things, Alexa pursued a career in acting, which inspired her to write the books in her Psychology for Actors Series.
Alexa also trained and worked as an energy healer. During this time, she used her psychology background to develop a practical and down-to-earth approach to energy work which is the basis for her Energy Awareness Series.
During her days in academia, Alexa worked on research projects at the University of Melbourne, the Australian National University, Cardiff University, the University of St Andrews, and the Scottish Government. Her research interests from those times led her to write Psychology and Politics, an academic book that focuses on the nature of group dynamics.
And finally, as a native Romanian speaker, Alexa embarked on translating into English a number of fairy tales collected by Petre Ispirescu during the 19th century, the result of which you can find in the Romanian Stories Series.
